Endurance Doors Upskilling Staff for Future Leadership Success

Endurance Doors is taking steps to ensure continued success, by investing into upskilling members of its team, equipping them with the expertise and abilities to become the brand’s senior leaders of tomorrow.

Sharleen Lawless, HR Director at the Endurance Group, commented: “The challenges facing UK businesses when it comes to recruitment have been well documented and publicised.

“To ensure these issues do not restrict the Endurance Group’s ambitious plans for the future we are adopting a similar approach to many other large and progressive employers.

“We are creating our own internal talent pipelines by offering our team extensive scope for personal and professional growth as well as further opportunities to develop through internal mobility.”

CMI Status

The new Endurance training initiative enables staff to gain either a CMI (Chartered Management Institute) Level 5 or Level 7 Diploma in Management and Leadership. Completing either course also enables participants to earn Chartered Manager status.

The courses are delivered online by a team of specialist tutors from the CMI and require significant commitment from students

The Level 5 course entails 370 hours of learning and usually takes a year to complete.

The Level 7 course meanwhile involves 557 hours of learning and typically involves around 15 months of studying.

To date, three members of the Endurance team have completed the Level 5 course with two of those students being awarded distinctions. One individual from the business has so far obtained the Level 7 qualification.

“Amazing interest”

“The interest from the team in our CMI Level 5 and 7 training has been amazing” said Sharleen.

“Participants have come from all areas of the business including operations, production, marketing, customer experience, technical, manufacturing and engineering.

“We’ve long recognised that our wider success stems from having engaged employees who feel empowered about their own development and career goals.

“The implementation of this latest initiative stems from that understanding and reflects our commitment to being an organisation that places its people first.”
